Aquaclear are indeed among the top hob. I suggest looking at replacing the insides with a medium sponge filter floss and bio ring setup. Never have to buy cartridges and such again.
Great price...

Hmmm. How are they stacked? I have my sponge brick at the bottom, blue-white filter in the middle, and media at the top. That weighs the sponge down pretty well.

The Fluval pre-filter I mentioned is pretty fine, compared to other more coarse pre-filters. As such, it will get clogged up more easily. That also means that it's keeping more debris from entering...

These are awesome, but terrible when you have sand. With sand, I recommend a canister filter. If sand gets into the impeller it slowly grinds between the rod/axle and the magnet of the impeller...

That means it is full of debris. You need to clean it more often, and if it happens way too often try a new sponge

Definitely not overkill. I would keep that 110/70 for that 75 gallon and maybe get this 70 as a backup or for another setup.

Both the same is nice but I had on my 75g, two 110's before upgrading to fx6 cannister. I'd keep what you have, until you get bigger tank if/when, but am a fan of overfiltration.
